NCVS

This week, the National Conference on Volunteering and Service (NCVS) is coming to our hometown – Washington, DC. The Case Foundation is excited to play a part in helping the Points of Light Institute to organize one of the largest convenings on volunteer service in the world, and we’re excited to participate in and facilitate several sessions and events.

If you’re planning to attend the conference, don’t miss the opportunity to hear from our CEO Jean Case during “The Art of Leadership” session where she’ll join Anne Saunders, President of Redbox and CNN’s senior political analyst, David Gergen. And be sure to register for the Civic Accelerator pitch session featuring the Case Foundation’s Senior Fellow Sonal Shah.

NCVS is also an important place for us to recognize the incredible value of pro-bono service – so please be sure to join us as we celebrate the efforts of A Billion + Change in mobilizing more than $2 billion in pro bono services to help nonprofits meet critical community needs.

Below are more details on the NCVS events where you’ll be sure to find a member of the Case Foundation – we hope to see you there! And if you aren’t able to join us in DC this year, be sure to follow the latest updates using the hashtag #NCVS.
